devres: add kernel standard devm_k.alloc functions
Currently, devm_ managed memory only supports kzalloc. Convert the devm_kzalloc implementation to devm_kmalloc and remove the complete memset to 0 but still set the initial struct devres header and whatever padding before data to 0. Add the other normal alloc variants as static inlines with __GFP_ZERO added to the gfp flag where appropriate: devm_kzalloc devm_kcalloc devm_kmalloc_array Add gfp.h to device.h for the newly added static inlines. akpm: the current API forces us to replace kmalloc() with kzalloc() when performing devm_ conversions. This adds a relatively minor overhead. More significantly, it will defeat kmemcheck used-uninitialized checking, and for a particular driver, losing used-uninitialised checking for their core controlling data structures will significantly degrade kmemcheck usefulness.
